Description
Version upgrade, includes fix for CVE-2010-2941. From the mitre report:
ipp.c in cupsd in CUPS 1.4.4 and earlier does not properly allocate memory for attribute values with invalid string data types, which allows remote attackers to cause a denial of service (use-after-free and application crash) or possibly execute arbitrary code via a crafted IPP request.
Loads of other fixes, see http://www.cups.org/articles.php?L597
